The photo on the first page has been photochopped... You would have to be 3'4" to drive it with that much chop POSIES Speed Queen Roadster Pickup How About Without the Top??? 10/24/07 1600 Miles No Problems and No Trailer!!!!! Thanks for your concern!! POSIES 2007 Driven Dirty Tour Blog
Hell, I like it. Guess I'm trendy...It looks like the seats sit pretty low to make up for the chop...maybe the floor has been altered? - hard to tell without seeing a detailed interior shot. The only things I don't like is the headrests...and the rear tire/wheel combo seem too thin...other than that the proportions are right on.
You know, the more I look at that truck the more I wonder how anyone couldn't like it. The seats, steering cloumn, console.... I'd have done something different but when was the last time I saw a car I wouldn't have done differently? All in all, that SOB flat out ROCKS! I'd kill for those wheels & tires. JH
I think the wheels are too tall and narrow for that truck... It makes it look kinda 'Donk-ish'... Hell can freeze over now... I used the word 'donk' in a sentence... I hate the seats... But all in all I like what's going on there... There are WAY stupider cars you guys could direct you ire at, that show up on the HAMB all the time. Any way you look at it, this car is getting disspraportionately ripped... Plain and simple.
"Any way you look at it, this car is getting disspraportionately ripped... Plain and simple." Sometimes in real life when you act like a dick to people it carries over to what you do and how people want to recieve it.
So your plan is to harp on what a dick the guy is everytime he rolls out a car? Dr. King commends your passive-agressistance... I see a car... The car is pretty cool... If you don't like the builder, don't comment on the car... But the next time someone asks you what you think of the guy, sieze the opportunity.
I'm not sure if those are daytons... they look like the lip lace wires that rally america makes... There is guy on the hamb, I think he goes by wheel kid or something he either owns rally america or works there. Plus they list sizes on the website of 19" X 3 and 20" by something which is about what those look like. I may be wrong though...
I think it may be because he obviously has loads of talent; his cars have excellent fit and finish quality. There is always something about them that blows the whole thing.
I like it. Even better with top off. I like the skinny tires. I also like the fact that he builds a lot of cars. They may be a bit odd, but interesting to look at. Not trend setting but unique.
Friend saw the Posies' car when the SEMA dirty tour came through Memphis earlier in the week. He knows rods and said it was well done.
you know.. i like it.. if it was mine i would probably change a thing or two, but its not.. and i like the way it sits.. especially with the top down! -Anthony
Yes you are a dick but I ALWAYS like your cars. I dont like headrests and Daytons no matter how passive-aggressive I am. Fuck, I'm done with this one. Ahhhh passive.
There ya go. Someone said it was well done. Don't the rest of us feel stupid now? And, for the record, I have absolutely nothing against Ken as a person. He's always been nice to me. And I like PARTS of his cars, but as a whole I think his cars don't look good. The Daytons look ghetto. The seats look too new. I've seen builders do the "flat black" thing better, still have quality construction, just using older, more period parts. As usual he's trying to mix styles and not able to pull it off. Pick a direction and stay the course. Circle City comes to mind, as does Pinkies. Get it? Great. Glad we cleared that up. Next. Spike
I think it's cool! He built it, he drives it and I hope he likes it. I know I do. That's my opinion. Ain't it nice, we can all have an opinion.
I'm gunna have to agree that Daytons are ugly. They should stick to lowriders. I wonder why he again didn't use the wheels we made him. They would have looked better. 20x5.5, 72 spokes. Better Looking Jimmy
If I'm on the ball tommorow (or is that today?), I'll post some chopped photos. I think what I did makes it much better, like raising the windshield and just for fun, sectioning it. I also did one with out a top. Much, much nicer , IMHO. Stay tuned.
